Summary

A neutral summary of the key facts most outlets agree on, drawn from reporting across the political spectrum.

The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Mullin v. Doe that the Trump administration may end Temporary Protected Status for Haitian and Syrian nationals, lifting lower-court orders that had blocked the Department of Homeland Security from terminating the protections. The decision affects more than 356,000 people who had been allowed to live and work legally in the U.S. because of violence, disaster or conflict in their home countries. The majority held that the TPS statute bars judicial review of non-constitutional challenges to DHS termination decisions, leaving beneficiaries potentially subject to deportation.
